Vitamins are bio-active materials and essential elements in our body but some of them are very low in milt Various vitamin-fortified milks are developed by the help of milk processing technology. However, heat treatments can affect vitamins contents in milk. Total loss of vitamins during the UBT(ultra high temperature) treatment was investigated. UHT treatment caused 60∼70% loss for vitamin C, and 30∼40% loss for vit. D3 and vit. E which are well-known as heat stable materials. On the contrary, degradation of water-soluble vitamins is relatively very low in the capsule-coated state. The capsule could reduce the loss of vitamins by protecting vitamins from the degradation factors such as heat, oxygen, lights etc. The fortification method using capsule can be thought as a new way to reduce the loss of vitamins during milk processing. Further study about heat treatment time and temperature, and capsule coating and materials will be required to minimize the loss of vitamins in milt.

Due to the increasing demand for convenience and simplicity, Home Meal Replacement (HMR) has become a key trend in the food service industry. This study researched the current consumer trend and analyzed the national and international HMR product trend, aiming to find useful insights for the field. Results showed that in order to expand the HMR market demand, it is possible to consider diversifying the product category by making customized premium products, such as products for the elderly, infants, patients, and sports players, or products with enhanced nutritional fortification. From the industrial aspect, centralization through Central Kitchen (CK) and implementation of the scientific and advanced ISO and HACCP system are necessary. Lastly, to develop high value-added HMR products, it is deemed essential to utilize the so-called 'food tech', the technology which integrates core technologies of the fourth industrial revolution into the food industry.

Lactobacillus bulgaricus (KFCC 35463) and Kluyveromyres fragilis (KFCC 35458) were inoculated together in soymilk, and then growth characteristics, acid production and the conditions suitable for acid production were investigated. L. bulgaricus produced more acid and the rate of acid production was more rapid when this organism was incubated with K. fragilis in soymilk than when it was incubated singly. Studying the conditions suitable for acid production in soymilk, optimum acid production by the mixed cultures of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis was achieved with a temperature of $35{\sim}37^{\circ}C$, a 1:2 (O.D.660) ratio of L. bulgaricus to K. fragilis at inoculum, a 1.0% level of sucrose fortification or a 1.5% level of skim milk powder fortification and a culture time of 24hr. Under these conditions the amount of acid produced by the single culture of L. bulgaricus and the mixed cultures of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis were 0.14% and 0.41%, respectively, in soymilk, 0.13% and 0.70%, respectively, in soymilk fortified with 1.0% level of sucrose. These indicate that the amount of acid produced by mixed cultures is about 2.9-fold greater in soymilk and about 5.4-fold greater in soymilk fortified with 1.0% level of sucrose than that produced by the single culture of L. bulgaricus. The amount of acid produced in soymilk fortified with 1.5% level of skim milk powder was 0.84% level for both of the single culture of L. bulgaricus and the mixed cultures of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis after 24hr incubation. However, the amount of acid produced by the mixed culture with K. fragilis was greater than that produced by the single culture of L. bulgaricus onlv in soymilk fortified with lower levels of skim milk powder than 1.5%.

Lactobacillus casei IFO 3012 and Kluyveromyces fragilis(KFCC 35458) were cultured together in Soymilk to investigate the growth characteristics and the conditions suitable for acid Production. L. casei produced more amount of acid rapidly when cultured with K. fragilis in soymilk than when cultured singly. The optimum conditions for acid production by the mixed cultures of L. casei and K. fragilis were achieved with a temperature of $35-37^{\circ}C$, a 1:5-1:9(O.D 660) ratio of L. casei to K. fragilis at inoculum, a 1.0 level of sucrose fortification or a 2.0% level of skim milk powder fortification and a culture time of 24hr. Under these conditions the amounts of acid produced by the single culture of L. casei and the mixed cultures with K. fragilis were 0.31% and 0.44% in soymilk, 0.43% and 0.97%, respectively, in soymilk fortified with 1.0% level of sucrose. These indicate that the amount of acid produced by mixed cultures is about 1.42 fold greater in soymilk and about 2.26 fold greater in soymilk fortified with 1.0% level of sucrose than that produced by the single culture of L. casei. The amount of acid produced in soymilk fortified with 2.0% level of skim milk powder was 1.0 level for both of the single culture of L. casei and the mixed cultures of L. casei and K. fragilis after 24hr incubation. In soymilk fortified with skim milk power less than 1.5 the mixed culture with K. fragilis showed higher content of acid than the single culture of L. casei only.

Nano-delivery systems, such as nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, and nanoliposomes, are carriers that have been used to enhance the chemical as well as physical stability and bioavailability of bioactive compound. Food-grade nano-delivery system can be produced with edible biopolymers including proteins and carbohydrates. In addition to the low-toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability of these biopolymers, their functional characteristics, such as their ability to bind hydrophobic bioactive compounds and form a gel, make them potential and ideal candidates for the fortification of bioactive compounds in functional dairy foods. This review focuses on different types of nano-delivery systems and edible biopolymers as delivery materials. In addition, the applications of food-grade nano-delivery systems to dairy foods are also described.

Isolation technology has been proven effective in reducing the seismic response of superstructures, where most of the deformation is concentrated in the isolation layer. However, in cases of earthquakes with intensities surpassing the fortification level of the area, or severe near-fault earthquakes, the isolation layer may experience excessive deformation, resulting in damage to the isolation bearings or collisions with the retaining wall or surrounding buildings. In this study, a finite element model using ABAQUS is established and compared with experimental test results to deeply investigate the influence of limit devices on the isolation layer and its response to the superstructure. The findings reveal that a larger limiter stiffness and a smaller reserved gap can achieve a more effective limiting effect. Nevertheless, a smaller reserved gap and a larger limiter stiffness may result in increased response of the superstructure. Therefore, rational selection of the reserved gap and limiter stiffness is crucial to reduce the acceleration response.

The mucilage production and tyrosine content in soy milk cake (SMC) fermented by Bacillus firmus NA-1, Bacillus subtilis GT-D, and B. subtilis KU-A was improved by fortification with 10% defatted soybean flour. The fibrinolytic activity and consistency of the SMC were drastically increased by solid-state fermentation for 1 day. However, the consistency of the fermented SMC gradually decreased during fermentation for 3 days. Furthermore, the tyrosine content of the freeze-dried powder of SMC fermented by three Bacillus sp. was 9 times higher than that of unfermented SMC. The soybean proteins, including the 7S and 11S subunits, were partially digested during alkaline fermentation, producing lower molecular-weight peptides. The fibrinolytic enzyme produced in SMC fermented by B. firmus NA-l and B. subtilis KU-A exhibited higher thermal stability than that of B. subtilis GT-D fermentation. The powder obtained from B. subtilis GT-D fermentation had an ${\alpha}$-amylase activity and lower consistency compared to those of B. firmus NA-1 and B. subtilis KU-A. In addition, this powder contained 6.3% moisture content, 27% crude protein content and 9 units of fibrinolytic activity and proteolytic activity.

Mucilage containing ${\gamma}-polyglutamic$ acid (PGA) was efficiently generated by the solid-state fermentation (SSF) of soybean grit by Bacillus firmus NA-1. B. firmus NA-1 was shown to be a glutamate-dependent strain for PGA production. The SSF of soybean grit was optimized in order to produce mucilage with a fortification of 5% glutamate, resulting in higher levels of mucilage production (6.14%) and a higher consistency index ($1.1\;Pa\;sec^n$). The sticky mucilage was comprised of 38% PGA, 7% levan, and some biopolymers. With regard to the viscoelastic properties of the mucilage solution, the viscous modulus (G") obtained from soybean grit fortified with 5% glutamate was approximately 64 times higher titan that of the mucilage solution obtained without glutamate. Although the addition of glutamate in the SSF of soybean grit influenced the rate of PGA production, the molecular weight of PGA remained unaltered, and was detected in a range between 1,400-1,440 kDa.

A fast and simple high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of four pesticides having fungicide properties has been proposed for Panax ginseng, C. A. Meyer grown for 4, 5, or 6 years. Analytical separation was performed on C18 columns using ultraviolet detector under gradient conditions. Spiked blank samples were used as standards to counteract the matrix effect observed in the chromatographic determination. The HPLC response for all pesticides was linear, with determination coefficients > 0.9986. The average rate of recovery for pesticides spiked with 2 fortification levels was > 72% with relative standard deviations < 9%. The limits of quantification (LOQ) ranged from 0.03 to 0.16 ppm. These LOQs were lower than the respective maximum residue limits (MRL) established by the Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA), except for cyazofamid. The proposed method was used to determine pesticide residue levels in samples of ginseng obtained from Jeonnam Province (Republic of Korea). None of the pesticides were found in ginseng samples grown for 4, 5, or 6 years.

This paper presents an experimental study on a 1/2 scale steel frame with archaized-style under the pseudo-dynamic loading. Four seismic waves, including El Centro wave, Taft wave, Lanzhou wave and Wenchuan wave, were input during the test. The hysteresis characteristic, energy dissipation acceleration response, displacement response, strength, stiffness and strain were analyzed. Based on the experiment, the elastoplastic dynamic time-history analysis was carried out with the software ABAQUS. The stress distribution and failure mode were obtained. The results indicate that the steel frame with archaized-style was in elastic stage when the peak acceleration of input wave was no more than 400 gal. Under Wenchuan wave with peak acceleration of 620 gal, the steel frame enters into the elastoplastic stage, the maximum inter-story drift was 1/203 and the bearing capacity still tended to increase. During the loading process, Dou-Gong yielded first and played the role of the first seismic fortification line, and then beam ends and column bottom ends yielded in turn. The steel frame with archaized-style has good seismic performance and meets the seismic design requirement of Chinese code.
